Despite being an old car, I use it as a daily driver. It turns heads, not always for the good reasons! It's quite cheap, cheaply made and has absolutely no power, but it always starts, even in cold weather, and it has never let me down. Problems with water leaks has made rust holes in the floor.Dec 10, 2011

"The beauty" By far the most reliable of every car i've ever owned, called the beauty in sarcasm because of its instant ability to turn womans heads and look at it in an erotic way!!! My first car ever and still the most memorable. Also attached is a picture of what I used to want to do and would still do to my chevette!!!Sep 16, 2010

This car was very sparse on creature comforts. The interior panels were all plastic and steel. Power nothing unless you ordered it and in that case the options robbed the engine of what little power there was.Mar 16, 2008

What users have asked
Where can I find a engine oil dipstick tube for an '85 Chevette?
It broke at the base and I've searched high and low for one.

Vega GT Wheels on an 85 Chevette?
Will Vega GT wheels fit an 85 Chevette? The Chevette has a 4 x 100mm lug pattern and the Vega has a 4 x 101.6mm. Does anyone know if they are interchangeable? Thanks
